I have only seen 1 Cimmaron, 2 Firenzas, and 1 Buick Skyhawk (500,000km) in my entire life. Corvette Sludgehammer is also rare too. (Check out supercars.net) Corsica XT Are Cutlass supreme convertibles rare? How about Buick Reatta and Cadillac Allante? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GPdriver1986 Posted August 21, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2003 I hardly see any Corsica Hatchback and I live in GM town, about a 2 km away from my house is a giant field of GM cars (brand new) and employees. GM made the Beretta convertible but it was proven unsafe so it was discontinued. All I know is that about 25 were made and they are being stored in a warehouse, checkout beretta.net for more info. Another GM car you don't see very often is Buick Skyhawk wagon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GPdriver1986 Posted August 21, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2003 I have never seen one like that, do you think someone made that? Heres the exact info from Beretta.net #1 WAS THERE EVER AN INDY CONVERTIBLE OFFERED FOR SALE TO THE PUBLIC? -No, in fact the idea was scraped but a few models are still remaining.Three were made for pacing the race at Indy, and GM still has two locked away in a warehouse somewhere, while the third is owned by the Indy museum, home on the Indy 500. Maybe that owner works for GM and he got lucky buying it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjs316 Posted August 21, 2003 Report Share Posted August 21, 2003 Does anyone know much about the vegas?? Is a Millionth Vega rare?? Anyone know what one is worth??? i have a chance to get one but i was wondering how rare it is...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supreme_style21 Posted August 21, 2003 Report Share Posted August 21, 2003 I wonder why GM keeps these cars? I woulda thought they would just crush 'em.. I'd give anything to get into that warehouse where they have all these cars :shock: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GPdriver1986 Posted August 21, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2003 They probably have all brand new cars in there like a TGP with only a couple of miles on it. It would be cool to see a brand new TGP, I wish I could get a Time Machine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
